I always put off taking down all the Christmas decorations because once it is all put away, everything seems so bare and less homey. I really don't like taking down the tree so, this year.... I'm not going to!
Paper hearts, valentines, ribbon or just red bulbs left from christmas will do the trick, and it's inexpensive way to decorate your tree.
I had such a great time with Lindsey, cutting out hearts and digging around looking for any scrapbook paper we had tucked away.
We made a big mess, but we had a great time, as usual! We already had the lights on the tree, which I love for that soft glow you get at night.
We did take a quick trip to Robert's, to get netting we used as garland. And it was on sale for 60% off!
After a much needed trip to the PIRATE section, mixed with the usual search for the perfect pirate BOA, we finished up at Roberts and headed home.

How awesome is getting a subtle reminder all month, of how we have so many people in our life that love us?! And not just our family, but also those people in our lives that make us smile when we really dont feel like smiling.
I hope they all know how much we love them.... and now, I'm going to think of more ways to show it every time I walk past our tree.

Very nice tree. A year ago, for New Year's, we visited Mitsi and stayed with her friend, Madeline. Madeline keeps her tree up all year, just takes off the ornaments after Christmas. So, I think you are perfectly justified to have a Valentine's Tree!
